About the Author
"When I was a young girl, my pets were my best friends. Everywhere I went they went with me. To this day, I have a tremendous love and deep respect for all animals large and small. My goal with this story is to convey the infinite value of love. It includes my recent companion, a gray tabby I call Haley, and her 'heroine' the Paintbrush Kitty. Although my illustrations put these simple characters in the spotlight of the foreground, I have enriched them with a textured Victorian backdrop that is meant to intrigue the reader as well as the listener.
Hopefully, my naturally heartfelt message will resonate in a positive way the subconscious emotional development of its listeners."
